    Roof Rack Help

    Baja Racks was on my top five list, but after researching other forums I found a company called front runner. their racks are low profile, very versatile, and has a lot of add ons, as well as supporting a lot more weight. The best part is I know it will fit...

    Roof Rack Help

    I'm getting a Snugtop shell put on my Ram truck (similar to the picture) and I've been looking for a roof rack/basket for the top. I really want the ARB steel basket http://store.arbusa.com/ARB-Steel-Roof-Rack-Basket-73-X-49-Inch-3800020-P3442.aspx. The problem is their mounts are vehicle...

    NW Overland Rally 2017

    Thanks Ed, I'm thinking of taking the 101 all the way to Olympic National Park then to the rally, and then drive to Montana and explore Yellowstone. That's the plan right now. I'm still deciding where to camp in Oregon. I'm for sure camping in the Redwoods of CA. and Olympic in WA.

    NW Overland Rally 2017

    Hi Ed B, I'm leaving from Socal to the NMOR and I was curious what rout you took and if you had any recommendations for the drive up i.e. camp stops since I'm going solo, or things to see along the way. Thank you and I hope your knee surgery goes well.

    Crux Bridging Ladder?

    I agree longer would be better especially with larger tires. Here is the link with videos. http://www.cruxoffroad.com/videos.html

    Crux Bridging Ladder?

    I am looking for recommendations on which Crux Bridging ladder I should get. Because of the size and weight of my truck the plastic traction boards will not work for me. I am leaning towards the 63" but with not a lot of offroad experience and never using a traction device I'm not sure if 63" is...

    Ram Build!

    Thank you, I wasn't always a huge fan of dodges although they're great trucks but the 4th gen has a stockier appearance I really liked.

    Ram Build!

    I really like it! It made a big difference in ride quality compared to stock and after I add the tires the ride was even better. The offloading I've done I felt the truck was responsive and smooth. I hope that helps.

    Ram Build!

    Thank you Murphy! Are you looking at a new 1500? If you're thinking about the diesel model I recommend google (ram 1500 hdsslaw) because there is a class action lawsuit against Fiat Chrysler for emissions cheating on the 2014-2016. I'm not sure how legit it is but I thought you should know or...

    Ram Build!

    Thanks Timberwolf, I thought about getting the Dominator which most of the guys at CJC Offroad have on their trucks and is an awesome set up. Cole who's one of the owners said I really didn't need that extreme of a system for what I would use my truck for and the Pintop was more than enough. He...

    Ram Build!

    I got plenty of pinstriping on the drivers side from the Cleghorn Jeep Trail. Thankfully I was able to buff most of it out when I got home which took several hours. The nice part of a white truck is that it hides scratches pretty well. I thought about getting a wrap when I bought the truck but...

    Ram Build!

    Thank you Boss324, the first time I really did any offloading was at the overland expo last year. Me and another guy drove up into the hills at night where I intentionally got stuck in mud almost above my tires. Thankfully my lockers and 4 low got me out. I also took my truck on the Cleghorn...
